Verse 1
Well, (G major) (Asus4)
(D major) Frankie said his daddy was a (G major) great
Amer (Asus4) ican her (D major) o (G major)
(Asus4) They had (D major) a lot of plans and nev (G major) er
made it (Asus4) back from the war (D major) (G major)
Mama (Asus4) believes (D major) he's alive and she still
(G major) leaves a (Asus4) light in the (D major) window (G major)
An (Asus4) d it shines (D major) through the night from these (G major)
dark an (Asus4) d distant shores (D major) (G major) (A major)
Now (B minor) the major plays his drum
While (G major) we wait for the
parade to come
Frankie (E major) said, don't you know
That I don't (A major) live here any (Asus4) more (A major)
Ain't (D major) it good to be alive
(G major) tonight (Asus4) in
Amer (D major) ica (G major)
May (Asus4) we (D major) never fail to remember
(G major) who gave (Asus4) us the right (D major) (G major)
For (Asus4) every (D major) man who ever laid his life (G major)
on the line (Asus4) for the miracle (D major) (G major)
(Asus4) May
(D major) God be with your son (G major) as you
run (Asus4) through the (B minor) night
As you run through the (G major) night
As you run through the (E major) night
Daddy, can you (A major) still see the light? (D major) (G major)
(Asus4) Well
(D major) Frankie turns 18, (G major) they said he made
(Asus4) a handsome sol (D major) dier (G major)
(A major) Now (D major) mama stopped believing,
she's just (G major) looking for (Asus4) someone to blame (D major) (G major)
Frankie (Asus4) said (D major) ain't it strange how these
(G major) old dreams (Asus4) only get older (D major) (G major)
(Asus4) The (D major) times may be changing but the (G major) color
of the (Asus4) blood is still (D major) the same (G major) (A major)
Now (B minor) the
Major cleans his gun while (G major) we
wait for the brigade to come
But (E major)
Frankie said, I wonder if anyone will
(A major) even remember my name
Ain't (D major) it good to be alive tonight in
America
May we never fail to remember
who (G major) gave us the right (D major)
(G major) For every man (D major) who ever made his
life (G major) on the line (D major) for the mirror (G major)
(D major) May (G major)
(D major) God be with (B minor) your son (G major) as
you run (D major) through (E minor) the (B minor) night
As you run through the (G major) night
As you run through the (E major) night
Hey,
Frankie, can you (A major) still see (Asus4) the light?
(A major) And (D major) it's good to be alive (G major) (Asus4)
(D major) (G major) (Asus4) (D major) (G major) tonight (Asus4) in
America
(D major) Ain't every (G major) (Asus4) body (A major) (D major)
doing (G major) alright (Asus4) in
Amer (D major) ica
Oh, oh, oh, (D major) oh, oh, oh...
oh... (G major) (D major)
Frankie said his daddy was a great (G major)
American (D major) (A major) hero.
